Dino Ghilotti, a former San Rafael resident who had just graduated from the University of Miami, died Sunday morning from injuries suffered in a car crash near the university's Coral Gables campus, according to local police. He was 22.

Ghilotti, of the Ghilotti construction family, was a passenger in the vehicle that crashed at 4:37 a.m., university spokeswoman Margot Winick told the Independent Journal. The driver was also a UM student, but further details about the accident were not available.

Ghilotti graduated Friday from the University of Miami with a degree in business. He had also attended Marin Catholic High School.

"He was going to go to work at Ghilotti Construction Company in Santa Rosa" after graduating, said Larry Kamer, a spokesman for the Ghilotti family.

"The family is dealing with a devastating situation right now. They certainly appreciate all the thoughts and prayers they have gotten," Kamer said. The spokesman said there will be a Mass in Marin "at the appropriate time, but right now they are all in Coral Gables dealing with the situation there."

"The entire university community is heartbroken to hear of the tragic accident which resulted in the death of a UM student who just celebrated his graduation on Friday," UM President Donna Shalala said in a statement.

"Dino Ghilotti ... had a bright future ahead of him and was about to join his family's construction business. Our condolences and thoughts are with his family and friends today," Shalala said.
